Providence Tarzana Medical Center

Directions/Features of Surrounding Area

Our city is named after the unforgettable character “Tarzan Of The Apes,” and is a tribute to his even more unforgettable creator – Edgar Rice Burroughs. After re-locating to Southern California in his early twenties, he began what he thought was a hobby, writing novels. His “Tarzan of the Apes” novels became so successful that in 1919, he was able to purchase a large ranch north of Los Angeles from General Harrison Gray Otis, was founder and publisher of the “Los Angeles Times.” He named it Tarzana. The citizens of the community that sprung up around the ranch voted to adopt the name “Tarzana” when their town was incorporated in 1928. Covering eight square miles, Tarzana has a population of 28,500, according to the San Fernando Valley 2000 Almanac. Many residents have their own swimming pools, following a storied tradition: Tarzana was the site of the Valley's first swimming pool. Of course, our greatest asset is our people. Residents who care about their neighbors and the community they live in. Residents who reach out to lend a helping hand to a stranger in need, and people who through service clubs, churches, synagogues and organizations take active leadership roles in the community. At the foot of the Santa Monica Mountains with many hiking trails, there are many leisure time activities for children and families and many volunteer opportunities available to help improve the quality of your life and that of others.
